Auto starts

Kent Brockman: Mayor Joe Quimby reaches the end of his ninth term of office today…
Kent Brockman: …amid accusations that he MAY have violated Springfield’s “One and Done” term limit legislation…
Kent Brockman: …as well as the “Time to Go, Joe” Act and the more recent “Mayor Quimby We Are Talking to You Please Just Leave” Referendum.

Task: Make Springfielders Compete for Mayoral Candidacy [x5]Time: 1hLocation: Town Hall or Simpson House

Dr. Hibbert: My fellow Springfielders, you all know me to be a man of character. A man of faith. And above all, a doctor who is loose with his Oxycontin prescriptions.
Dr. Hibbert: And if I become Mayor, I will be so distracted with political stuff, I’ll probably get even looser with the Oxy. I’m talking LOOOOOOSE.
Lindsey Naegle: I will make Springfield the most business-friendly city in America.
Lindsey Naegle: Businesses are gonna love us, and take care of us, and call us beautiful, and keep us warm all night long.
Ned: The only job of a Mayor is to be fair, honest, and transparent.
Ned: And to introduce a series of “religious freedom” bills that let us discriminate against people who aren’t exactly like us. Which I will definitely do.

The Barbarian Candidate Pt. 2

Homer starts

Homer: What!? Flanders is running for President of Springfield?
Lisa: Not for President — for Mayor.
Homer: Phew. If there’s one thing Springfield DOESN’T need, it’s President Stupid Flanders.
Lisa: Dad… Springfield doesn’t have a President.
Homer: We don’t?! Then THAT must be Flanders’ plan — run for mayor, win the election, then step into the empty President position and be President of Springfield!
System Message: There may not be a President OF Springfield but it doesn’t mean you can’t have a President IN Springfield. Check out the store to get yourself one!

Lisa: Mayor.
Homer: This country–
Lisa: –city–
Homer: –cannot afford to elect a President–
Lisa: –MAYOR!–
Homer: –with such a dangerously annoying personality. #NeverFlanders #HitAHomer
Homer: If you will give me your vote, I will make any campaign promise you like.
Homer: Is it impossible? I promise to do it! Is it immoral, illegal, disturbing? You have my word it will be done!
Homer: Does my promise to you directly contradict a promise I made to someone else? Both will be done! I promise!

Ned: Hi-diddly-ho, political rival-rino! I hear we’re gonna be ballot buddies!
Homer: Going door-to-door to talk to the people of Springfield, Stupid Flanders?
Ned: Only way to spread the word, right, pal?
Homer: Not for me! I’ve got a whole army of volunteer college kids to spread my message.
Homer: College kids. You say words like “Wall Street” and “hope” and “climate change,” and they’ll canvas ‘til their feet bleed.
Homer: Well, that’s what you get for believing things can ever get better. They’ll learn!

Kent Brockman: Kent Brockman here, reporting from the First Mayoral Debate.
Kent Brockman: Tonight’s debate is sponsored by Homer for Mayor, 2016! Remember folks: vote Homer. Flanders is a tool.
Kent Brockman: That really doesn’t seem ethical, does it? Allowing one of the candidates to sponsor the debate?
Kent Brockman: This just in. I am being handed an envelope by one of my producers. Said envelope is stuffed with cash, in the amount of…
Kent Brockman: …
Kent Brockman: As I was saying! Tonight’s debate is brought to you by Homer for Mayor, 2016!

Ned: If I am your Mayor, I promise you my door will always be open. I will balance the budget, eliminate graft and corruption, improve our schools–
Homer: FREE EAGLES.
Ned: Homer? Were you saying something?
Homer: *whistling innocently* …
Ned: All righty. As I was saying… Good, responsible governance isn’t just–
Homer: VOTE HOMER GET AN EAGLE.
Ned: …
Homer: *whistling innocently* …
Ned: Homer, do you expect people to believe you’ll give them an eagle if they vote for you?
Homer: WHAT KIND OF EAGLE DO YOU WANT? GOLDEN? DONE! WHITE-TAILED? DONE! BALD? DONE (WHILE SUPPLIES LAST)!
Ned: I have to believe the good people of Springfield are too smart to–

The Barbarian Candidate Pt. 6

Homer starts

Kent Brockman: The votes are in and our new mayor is… Homer J. Simpson!
Homer: Woohoo! In your face, Flanders!
Kent Brockman: We go now to City Hall, where Mayor-Elect Simpson will sign his name into Springfield’s Big Book of Mayors, thus beginning his term of office.
Homer: Paperwork? No one told me this desk job would come with paperwork!

Task: Make Homer Avoid PaperworkTime: 6sLocation: Simpson Home

Kent Brockman: Today marks one month that Mayor-Elect Homer Simpson has refused to sign the Big Book of Mayors.
Kent Brockman: Instead, he just wanders around town, performing “jobs” like drinking at Moe’s Tavern and lounging in a kiddie pool.
Kent Brockman: How these tasks constitute gainful employment, this reporter cannot say.
Kent Brockman: But as stipulated in the Convenient Plot Device Act of 1892, should the Mayor-Elect fail to sign into the Big Book, after one month the title of Mayor reverts to the previous owner.
Kent Brockman: Therefore, our Mayor is once again Joe Quimby.
Kent Brockman: Hey, that WAS a convenient plot device!
System Message: Looks like Homer no longer needs all those eagles he ordered. Here you go!
